Meng Sheng's injuries did not begin to heal until five days later. Although the bruises on his back did not disappear so quickly, they did not hurt anymore.
The wound on my shoulder was also patched up and started to scab over.
When she went to the hospital, Fu Chen checked her again and said, "It's recovering well. The wound is in the flesh growth stage and will itch. You must not scratch it, understand?"
"Yes, I know."
"You can continue to use the medicine on your back. It will be almost gone in about a week."
"Okay, thank you."
Fu Chen suddenly remembered something, opened the drawer next to him, pulled out a colorful children's painting, and handed it to her, "Miaomiao asked me to give this to you."
Meng Sheng took the painting. There were people, objects, flowers, and many colors on it, but no words.
The painting is not very good and there is no pattern to it.
The only thing she could understand was a pair of little fingers poking together. She smiled and asked, "Did Miaomiao draw this?"
Fu Chen nodded, "Yes, she has been drawing this picture these days, saying it is a gift to thank you for saving her. She has never learned to draw, and these things are all improvised by her children's tablet."
Meng Sheng smiled when he heard this, "Is that so? Miaomiao is quite talented in painting, and she paints very well. I will accept this thank you gift."
"I should be the one saying thank you." A smile appeared in Fu Chen's gentle eyes.
Later he told her about Meng Chengli's recent condition.
When Meng Sheng returned to the ward from the office, a nurse was drawing blood from Meng Chengli.
Perhaps the blood vessels in Meng Chengli's arm were a little thin and difficult to find, so the nurse gave him three injections but was unable to draw blood.
She trembled her eyes in embarrassment and looked at Meng Sheng awkwardly, "I'm sorry..."
Meng Sheng was not annoyed, and gently comforted him, "It's okay, don't worry, take your time."
The nurse looked at her and nodded randomly.
She patiently gave them two more injections before they succeeded. After drawing blood, she apologized to them again with red eyes, then pushed the treatment cart out of the ward.
When she got down to the 16th floor and stepped out of the elevator, she saw several figures coming towards her.
She paused, remembered something, rubbed her eyes with her hand, and walked forward with her head down.
When the vehicle was about to hit the old lady in the middle, Gu Qinglian, who was standing by, quickly stopped the treatment vehicle and frowned, cursing, "Don't you have eyes? Can't you see there are so many people in front of you?"
The nurse looked up and apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
Gu Qinglian recognized her and saw her red eyes. "Xiaotao, why are you still crying? Did something happen?"
"without……"
"Why, were you scolded by the head nurse or the doctor?"
"No..." The nurse bit her lip and sighed softly, "I just drew blood from Miss Meng's father on the 17th floor. His father's blood vessels are too thin to feel. I couldn't find them after three injections.
Miss Meng said that I was not skilled enough, scolded me, and even went to complain to the head nurse about me, saying that she didn’t want to see me again.”
She spoke the following words in a low voice, and the tears in her eyes fell down with a slight blink of an eye, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Gu Qinglian was a little surprised when she heard this, "Ms. Meng? Are you talking about Meng Sheng?"
The nurse nodded and wiped away her tears. "But it's also my fault. Miss Meng just feels sorry for her father."
"Oh, she looks noble and aloof on weekdays, but I didn't expect that she is such an unreasonable and arrogant person in private."
Cui Xueheng sneered beside her, as if she had suddenly grabbed her pigtail and wanted to step on her, "Mom, look, how can someone like her...
How can I be qualified to enter the Pei family? !
Old Mrs. Pei glanced at her indifferently with her turbid eyes, causing her voice to stop abruptly and she closed her mouth.
The old lady did not comment on this matter, as if she did not take it to heart, and still said kindly, "Let's go."
The nurse stopped crying, turned her head to watch their backs as they walked away, took a deep breath, and pushed the treatment cart into Gu Ci's ward.
"Miss Gu, let me draw your blood."
Gu Ci put the book down, pulled up his sleeves, and smiled at her, "Okay, thank you for your help."
The nurse used an iodine cotton swab to smear a circle around the bend of her hand, while looking for a blood vessel, she said, "Miss Gu, I have done what you asked, but the old lady didn't react at all."
"Okay, I understand." Gu Ci raised her eyes and responded calmly, "Thank you for your hard work. I will have someone transfer the money to you today."
“It’s not hard, it’s not hard.”
The nurse smiled, drew the blood and left the ward.
Gu Ci pressed the bend of her hand with a cotton swab, and a faint smile appeared in her clear and gentle eyes.
She had to give the old lady a shot of prevention and plant a seed of prejudice in her heart to facilitate her subsequent plans.
This kind of thing only happens once, and the effect may not be great, but what if it happens more often?
Even if Pei Sui has deep feelings for Meng Sheng, the old lady will not agree to let Meng Sheng enter the Pei family because he is a person of bad character.
She glanced at the date and calculated carefully in her mind that Yuan Siying and Ning Weiwei, the two chess pieces, had to be used well so as not to be wasted.

After Pei Sui dealt with the matters of the law firm, he began to prepare to go to Linhai City.
The day before leaving, he went to the hospital again to communicate with Meng Chengli.
Meng Chengli's attitude towards him could not be described as close, but rather distant yet somewhat polite.
It's completely like the relationship between a client and an attorney.
Pei Sui didn't care about his attitude and asked calmly, "The procedures for early retirement are complicated. Two or three of them require signatures from you or your immediate family members. It takes a lot of time to run back and forth. I want to let your daughter and I go to Linhai together. What do you think?"
Meng Chengli was a little surprised, and his brows furrowed, "You want Shengsheng to go to Linhai City with you?"
Pei Sui nodded without blushing or beating his heart, "Yes."
"You, as an attorney, can't sign those documents?"
"This is about your retirement pension and fund for next year, and it does require the signature of your immediate family members."
"How long will you be gone?"
"It won't take too long to complete these procedures. Two of them require you to go to the local social security bureau and queue up, which takes about three to five days."
Pei Sui's words were well-reasoned and he had indeed worked there.
Meng Chengli glanced at his cold and indifferent face, hesitated for only two or three seconds, and then looked at Meng Sheng who was silent beside him.
"Shengsheng, is your art gallery busy?"
Meng Sheng, "I can still spare three to five days."
Meng Chengli nodded, "In that case, you and Lawyer Pei should go there. Go back early to prepare today, and you don't have to stay here."
"Okay. Then you must listen to the doctor's advice, take the medicine well, and cooperate with Professor Fu. You should rest, and I will come back to see you when I come back."
After Meng Sheng gave his instructions, he picked up his bag and left the ward with Pei Sui.
After walking a distance, she nudged the man next to her with her elbow and said, "Is what you and my dad said true? Is there really a part in the process in Linhai City that requires my signature?"
